JOBS

Do you offer immediate job openings where I can start work the next day?

Metro Services is always looking for qualified applicants who can start immediately.

Do you have jobs that are felon-friendly?

This depends on the location of our office and our client’s requirements. Our job openings change daily as new clients are brought on board. In most areas, Metro Services does offer felon-friendly jobs. However, you should call your local office to confirm.

Does Metro Services offer part-time jobs?

We offer many different job types at each location. For specifics, call your local office to find out if, and/or which, part-time jobs are available.

Does Metro Services offer traveling jobs?

Our 3PL (Travel Jobs) division is growing rapidly, and we always strive to have positions to fill. These are often high-paying jobs across multiple states. However, we fill up quickly, so it is best to call our Call Center at 855-715-JOBS to ask about available positions. If we have open positions, we can help you apply and get started with us. If we do not have any positions open when you call, your information and callback number will be taken down for future reference.

Does Metro Services help build resumes, or is a resume required?

Metro employees are happy to help assist with your resume. Typically, we do not require resumes for our positions. However, if the client needs a high level of experience for the job, a resume will likely be required. Presenting your skill set, work experience, and list of accomplishments will always work to your advantage when applying for a job.


TRAINING

Does Metro offer forklift training classes?

Yes. This class must be administered in Manchester, TN, at Metro’s headquarters, where you will be provided a forklift to practice on, an obstacle course, safety lessons, and a knowledge test at the end of the class.

Does Metro offer forklift certification?

Yes. The certification course must be completed with a passing grade.


ADVANCEMENT

Am I guaranteed full-time employment with the company I start with as a temporary employee?

This all depends on you. Your attitude, work ethic, discipline, and punctuality will play the biggest part in securing you a full-time position with the company you are working for. Unless told otherwise, our positions are predominantly temp-to-hire, so a probationary period of 90 days will be very important to the employer in helping gauge and measure your performance. Working hard, being on time, performing well, and having a good attitude will likely help you become a member of the team.

If I start working as a temporary employee, is it possible to be promoted or hired full-time before the end of my 90 days?

Yes. On many occasions, an outstanding employee has been hired within 90 days. If the company sees you as an asset to its workforce and you perform well, you may be hired more quickly.
